North Shore’s Green Clean celebrates 10 years of Eco Lovin’ Home Scrubbin’

North Shore, Ma- Award winning environmentally conscious housecleaning company celebrates 10 years of service in January 2016. Green Clean, founded in Salem by then 22 year old Midge Lyon, has been well-revered in the community as a reliable and trustworthy company that is passionate about delivering excellence with an environment-friendly drive. They use all natural cleaning products, reusable cleaning tools and are very aware of use and waste within their operation. For the first several years, Green Clean’s service was a Salem, Ma exclusive and operated car-free. Midge and her staff geared up year-round on bicycles pulling a bike buggy crafted by one client and hand painted by another to fit a vacuum and supplies. 

Now using cars to serve more clients more reliably, their commitment to the environment remains a top priority. Currently their service is limited to area’s of Boston’s North Shore.

Over the years Green Clean has provided green jobs within the community. A socially conscious company, Green Clean pays their star employees above the local average in an effort to provide rewarding, meaningful and sustainable work.

Now in its 10th year and having earned six Best of North Shore awards, Green Clean is ready to grow. They’ve been meeting with prospects and discussing the possibility of taking on a business partner and expanding service. They hope to open a couple of new locations and hire from within the communities that they serve in order to reduce driving and create green jobs in the community. 

Open invite to the public to help us celebrate:

Neil deGrasse Tyson Quote of the Week from Greg Bover

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

4 December, 2015

“The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it.”

Neil deGrasse Tyson (1958 –    )

image

A New York City native and a product of its public schools, Dr. Tyson is arguably the most publicly visible scientist in the country. He was attracted to astrophysics from an early age, lecturing on the subject as early as fifteen years of age. Although scouted for Cornell by Carl Sagan, he chose Harvard University, and did post-graduate work at the University of Texas, Princeton, and Columbia before being named Director of the Hayden Planetarium in 1996. He has become the public face of the scientific perspective for many and has hosted numerous television shows, including Nova and Cosmos, (which Sagan had once hosted.) He was at the forefront of the controversial movement to classify Pluto a minor planet and has spoken widely on the relationship between spirituality and science. In great demand as a commencement speaker, Tyson holds eighteen honorary doctorates, the most recent from UMass-Amherst. Another Tyson quote: “The universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.”

Awesome Gloucester Pitch Night at O’Maley

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Dear Joey,

Awesome Gloucester held its Pitch Night at the O’Maley School Library Monday night. This month we took proposals for “making Gloucester more awesome” only from students there and received eleven. Our twenty trustees, who each chip in $50, voted to choose the top four ideas, and heard them pitched at the event. Even better, the Gloucester Education Foundation generously doubled our usual kitty, so when we voted again after hearing the presentations, the top two ideas were each funded with $1000, free and clear. The top vote getters were student initiatives to establish composting of food waste at the school, and another to support activities for kids with IEP’s during movement breaks.

This was one of those fun, exciting events that gave everyone who attended hope for the future. These kids and their ideas were extremely impressive and their presentations were articulate and well thought through.

Next month we’ll be back to taking proposals from all comers at awesomegloucester.org.

Thanks,

Greg

Lobster trap buoy tree KIDS BUOY painting all week

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Cat Ryan submits-

Hi Joey-
Cool interactive gateway this year on Cape Ann Art Haven lobster trap design! Great photo op for everybody.

If we ever have buoy overflow –or enough requests and funding– wouldn’t it be great to hang the buoys with the wreaths downtown?  We used to have gold buoys with the wreaths.

The wreaths at the train station and along Railroad Avenue look wonderful this year with the new sidewalk.

Hi Joey,

Charles and George received some fun photos and stories about the Gloucester High School cadets program. Here’s a challenge. Local prize for first correct responses.

Who is this cadet with Brando brows and cleaned up coif? Does anyone have any information about the GHS graduation photographer and year?

When was the uniform in the color photo worn at Gloucester High School? 

Good Morning Gloucester and the Gloucester Daily Times spread the word about the Gloucester High School Civil War coat that needs restoration. Charles and George set up a youcaring site for anyone who wants to donate on line. Due to their age (6th grade) they themselves don’t have Facebook, but others have been sharing for them! They want to get back to it in January, “because no one wants to do raise money in December.” Money collected will go directly to the Gloucester fund and then on to a textile conservator through the Committee for the Arts.

the wine Trap For The Wine Lover in your Life

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

https://www.instagram.com/p/-9crUWRKIs/

Available now at Pisces, Savour Wine and Cheese and The Last Resort On Bearskin Neck

The Wine Trap was born out of a love for lobstering and drinking
No good story ever started with “I had a glass of orange juice” and this one is no different. We are a crafty family with deep roots in fishing that go back to the early 1900s. We love to build and create together. After a few cocktails one evening, we tried to figure out a way to share our passion for the ocean with the world. After several hours of crimping and bending The Wine Trap was born.
Each trap is handmade by our family and friends using authentic lobster trap materials in a fashion similar to the traps we use for fishing.
Although it can be used to gift wine and other spirits, there are so many other uses for The Wine Trap. It can hold LED candles, potpourri, candy etc. And we think it will outwit most squirrels when used as a bird feeder. Hopefully you will find some new ones as well.
There is no better feeling than sharing, so we hope you enjoy and share The Wine Trap with your friends and family.
From our family to yours!!!! Enjoy!!
